:" ' ' . ' . - i THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 8. "-185 BREACHES Off PROMISES. . We recollect, many yean ago, that t printer edvestlted that he would lake pay for bis paper, la all sort of country prod nee, except promues. Had be lived aod moved In these latter days, be night have appended, oirn. -also to the word. Promises are very current, tat the misfortune is tirey are not errcy--lf they. nrtjre we would nave quite a pile at this writing aa would, we dare ssy, mny of oat neighbors. - Althougb, breaches of promise, In regard to the payment of debts, and the fulfilment of business appointments, are very aeriona matters, it would eccm that a majority yea, a large "majority of rntnklnd do not think S0r Yet the practice, of ten adopted in thoughtless mood, is an evil of great magnitude in. every community where Hex- J isU and where does it not 1 The breach of a promise to pay money at a certain hour or day, by one man, otherwise of a fair reputation, way, be the means of inflicting a partial disgrace upon ten others, who have mutually relied upon each other, All arising from a habit very reprehensible. What shall I do, says one"? Dol Why, do noth ing ; for it is better to do nothing than to do mis chlef. Au honest man will promUaOo dq; o and so, if he can ; but if there are eontingenclce in the way, we think he should make them known to the expectant. If a man is embarrassed, he -certainly cannot add to bis credit or character, 4y uttering untruths' in the regard under discus sion ; but rather make tbinga a great deal worse if or Eiciself awd his friends. If a mau la not em barrassed, and -wilifally -disappoints the applicant it is -not necessary for "ns to print the name lie deserves. - Almost, if not.quite as criminal, is he conduct of the man who treats such matters with indifference. Neither of these persons gain anything for their pains unless it is a pleasure to know of aching hearts, disappointed hopes, the pecuniary difficulties, and, perhaps, the ruin of his fellow citizens. - ' r v ' There ia another habit the effects of which are rerr injurious. That U. for one to suppose that i vi j iiyuiivuw or. ajwi w s v i-J-y v wuakvav wuww m another does not need a sum due to him, because 1 it is a Irifi-c.

MR.

While his friends thought lie had more principle his enemies believed be had more "sense than tod as be haa done., Mr, 8tanlt bas very many personal friends in North Carolina, and while bis waywardness will notwe; presume, as It certainly ought not to change that relationship, they cannot reflect ui on the matter without the most painful emotions. . - We understand him to say that ho always en tertained abolition viewa. If be did, he has not" acted with truthfulness and candor towards bis fellow citizens of North Carolina. lie was for a' time a crested leader In the Whig party, who were certainly not amenable to the charge of ab olitionism, or of favoring that destructive aenti- incnt at (be lime be held rank with them,. "On 8TiNr.r, on 1' was the political "waf-cry of his party, who looked op to him as a "bold and active leader, worthy of approval and applause.' .

It may be written of hhn, and tbe sequel will show if, we think, that In giving loose to his wild de signs, he perilled all and lost all. THE CASH SYSTEM. " .
